A TREND so big it's an option in hair salons, the ombr?ook is now having a moment in denim. A more subtle spin on summer's crazy-print jeans, the dip-dye styles are also more versatile. The stylist Kusum Lynn suggests wearing them with a loose tank or chambray shirt and a Rick Owens-style leather jacket. ''Keep it casual and effortless-looking with a little tuck of the shirt at the front of the jeans,'' she said. ''Pair with high-heeled ankle boots, a satchel bag and, for a little toughness, some chunky metal bracelets.''
